08:07 There’s a deer skulking around our parking lot about 10 feet from my desk. So cold I see his breath coming out of his nostrils. Just wow. #
21:33 Just watch Puccini For Beginners. Liked it. Kinda chick flickish, but smart. Not condescending or bubble-headed. Would watch again. #

08:27 Snowed yesterday, didn’t stick. Below freezing this morning. Miss having a fireplace at home. I say that every winter since 98, ha. #
18:12 I like exclaiming "oooh, look at those big cocks" about rooster figurines in stores. It gets a few glances. Heh. #

08:14 I have mentioned I am not a morning person, yes? #
12:30 Had a caller say they’d hold until a coworker came into the office. Wow, 4 hours seems like a long time to wait, but oooookaaaay. #
12:33 also had someone argue with me about how long someone should be out of the office for a funeral. apparently an hour & a half is too long. #

22:49 Boyfriend is Naggy McNaggerson. #
13:17 Had brunch with pseudo-father in law. Now fighting with an unstable intarweb connection. Fun Sunday, huh? :\ #
20:24 After getting frustrated with the web, I watched Art Wolfe photograph fire-eaters in West Africa. Now sniffling over Extreme Home Makeover. #

00:01 After Sunday’s program TRL will be no more. Nice piece on abc news about how the show can’t compete with the web anymore. Hmm. #
12:58 By the time I get done making my cup of coffee it is more like a dessert with all that pumpkin ice cream and whipped cream. Mmm, creamy. #
13:45 Funny how the ones who claim to hate drama either are the cause of it or find a way to insert themselves in it. #

08:18 Had to come in to the office early… With no coffee! OMG, help! #
12:56 Haven’t had a single nice phone caller today. These people need a sedative and are making me need one too! #
17:51 Watchin Rick Bayless cookin. I love eggs, but huevos rancheros and "breakfast burritos" gross me out. #
19:30 Is your cat plotting to kill you? www.catswhothrowupgrass.com/kill.php #

13:07 Woah. I’m dizzy. Feel like I’m drunk. Good thing I have a sit down job. Hope this ain’t serious & that it goes away soon. #

Listen To Me

My friend Shelby wrote this and I liked it so much, I’m sharing it with you…

When I feel safe enough
to spill my heart out
and I ask you to listen,
Listen to me.

When I’m attempting
To use my verbal voice
and I ask you to hear me,
Listen to me.

When I need someone
To be there and I need
Someone to trust,
Listen to me.

When so much is happening
And I become so overwhelmed
That I can’t think straight or breathe,
Listen to me.

I’m not asking you to save me,
I’m not asking you to die for me,
I’m just asking you to be here and care,
Listen to me.

I’d like it if you understood and I’d be glad if you knew the answers,
But I understand that you don’t.
I just need you to
Listen to me.

Don’t leave me alone
On this journey I have begun,
Help me through it–
Listen to me.

When the dark night sets in,
And my words become thin,
Keep me safe from my own thoughts…
Listen to me.
